Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 My son was born with hair on his back. I thought this was a little strange but the doctor said it was no big deal. He is ten years old and has had the dark hair down his back all this time. I guess that is a sign of high testostrone? From what I understand its a factor in the body not being able to gid rid of the mercury, hence the reason there are more boys than girls with autism.

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 It has also been my experience that high testosterone will prevent other treatments from working -- like chelation.

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I wonder, are there any other possible reasons out there to have excess body hair, other than too much testosterone? Do genetics sometimes play a role? Other hormones? Anything? just curious Rene > > My son was born with hair on his back. I thought this was a little strange but the doctor said it was no big deal.

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Another possibility is there are over 100,000 xenoestrogen substances in shampoos, soap, moisturizes, body lotions, sun lotions, clothing, fabric, furniture....you name it. When they are absorbed into the skin, they are 10 time stronger than oral. They act as synthetic hormones, mimicking " real " . There's tons of information on the internet...

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 People with Cornelia de Lange Syndrome typically have lower hairlines and eyebrows which meet in the middle among other symptoms. It's a genetic condition which can be inherited from either parent. S S <p>I wonder, are there any other possible reasons out there to have <br> excess body hair, other than too much testosterone?

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 If you want a guess hereditary traits probably have a lot to do with what we look like as does environment in longer terms.
